Has anyone had good/bad experiences upgrading from v4 to v5. Our company is currently contemplating this move, with several options of CAD we don't have a deep history of v4 files or experience. As I am still several hundred/thousand hours away from becoming a proficient v4 user, is now a good time to switch???

The switch for users that can put their modeling methods behide them will find the transistion easy. CATIA V5 is a total redesign of CATIA and its much better for the users. with 60 hours of training and 3 month of experance you can become proficient. Personally seaking! Currently I am useing V5R8...
Now is the time to upgrade , V5 is an all together better product . I have been a v4 user for about 8 years and did not want to swap but after some basic training i relised it was a far superior product .The retraining time is less than you think because it is very user friendly and the online help is superb .
